"Breaking: U.S. immigration policy takes a major turn as Title 42 expires - find out what this means for migrants at the border

During the COVID-19 outbreak, the Trump administration established Title 42, a public health decree that allowed for the expulsion of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. However, Title 42 has now expired. Despite opposition from immigration activists and health professionals, the Biden administration had kept the order in place. The order had been applied to swiftly remove immigrants, including those who were applying for asylum, without giving them access to due process or legal counsel.

 

A fundamental change in U.S. immigration policy has been brought about by the termination of Title 42. The order will no longer be used by the Biden administration to deport families and unaccompanied youngsters, according to the announcement. However, the administration will keep removing single adults using Title 42.

 

 

Immigration advocates have hailed the repeal of Title 42.
